WOODBRIDGE — A man from Triangle is the latest Virginia Lottery winner.
In a press release, the lottery told Potomac Local winner Anthony Wesley of Triangle had a funny feeling when his wife returned home from shopping and said, “Hey. someone won for a million dollars at Shoppers. Was it you?”
He was only half-joking when he replied, “It probably was.”
That’s because he knew he’d bought a Mega Millions ticket at Shoppers in Dumfries for the April 16 drawing, and he was feeling lucky.
It turns out that he was indeed the $1 million winner. His ticket matched the first five numbers and missed only the Mega Ball number. The winning numbers were 11-29-34-48-54 and the Mega Ball number was 10. He used Easy Pick and allowed the computer to randomly select the numbers on his ticket.
Mr. Wesley said he plans to invest his winnings for his children. He also vows to win again.
The Virginia Lottery operates a claims office at Potomac Festival Shopping Center in Woodbridge.

Inspired by local physicians who were among the nation’s first to adopt the concierge medicine model, Northern Virginia is now a hub for its surging popularity. These leading physicians are redefining the patient experience with same-day appointments, direct availability, unhurried visits, and deeply personalized care:
After almost 40 years in practice, Manassas-based Internist John Cary, MD’s change to concierge medicine enabled focused attention for each individual, and the launch of his innovative diet program for those with type 2 diabetes. “The goal is to promote enough weight loss to reach an acceptable A1C of 6% with no medication,” he explains. “Achieving that can take several months of very close follow up. As I tell my patients, we are in this together.”
Jay Tyroler, MD considers his patients quite literally as family. “I believe there’s nothing more honorable than helping patients when they’re sick, or scared, or feeling vulnerable, and I care for them exactly as I would my loved ones.” Whether for a specialist referral, urgent health issue or ongoing follow up, “My patients know I’m always just a phone call away.”
